OBAMA'S DREADFUL CIVIL RIGHTS RECORD

You'd like to think that the first president of color might be better on civil rights. Not worse that George W. Bush. Remember the NDAA which gave presidents the right to detain American citizens without a trial? Obama apologized for signing it and then promised to never use it, though of course future presidents can. So who was forcing him to sign it? He is eroding our civil rights and concerning this aspect of his presidency, he is worse than Bush was. Let's hear what the Obama apologists have to say to that.

Bush." MEDIAITE.COM
